hi,

I'm looking for a small program to show the input from my video-in of my Gainward Gf4-4200 with VIVO.
It's all working in VirtualDubMod but im looking for a smaller program that i can easily strech the size of the window of.
Any ideas?

A simple capture graph in GraphEdit should do that. I don't know exactly which filters you'll have to connect four your Geforce, but it should take only a couple of minutes. You'll get an Active Movie window, which is resizable via the normal way

is that Active Movie Window a filter i have to add? cant find it :(
found the nVidia WDM Video Capture filter with 4 output pins: Capture, VP, VBf and VPVBf. I'm really not so good with this, could u give me some more clues pse? :)

the smallest tv-viewr that i know is amcap (the sample dshow capture application that comes with the DX-DSK). you can download it from http://btwincap.sf.net

other than that you'd be able to use nearly all tv applications.

other than that you'd be able to use nearly all tv applications well, i had tryed the dscaler tv application mentioned in the faq but thats really only for tv-cards with a BT8x8 chipset...

But the amcap worked like a charm tnx :)

that's why i said nearly ;) dscaler is only for btxxx chips, while most tv apps are general direct show and thus should work. this applies for amcap. ;)

btw, if anyone is interested, i've made a small modification for amcap.

my mod allows for dbl-click on the video area -> no caption and menu (only border and video).

i did that because amcap was the only app that let me view a clip with zoom player while watching tv at the same time. so i wanted a picture-inside-picture, and i wanted to have a small section of the screen to show tv, while the rest plays the movie. but with caption and menu it was quite annoying, so, i just modified few lines of code to support dbl-click -> toggles caption and menu.

attached is the exe and the modified source.
enjoy.
